SaysWho? Posted August 9, 2022 Share Posted August 9, 2022 I'm legitimately excited for the next climate summit (I think it's November?). The whole problem with the pre-Inflation Reduction Act world was that the U.S. didn't have a big accomplishment to tout when asking other countries to pick up their efforts in combatting climate change. Now, they do. I was looking at ResetEra, and an Aussie member was talking about how they're getting a climate bill through and one of the biggest arguments against it was that the world's biggest polluters haven't done much. With the U.S. being one of those countries which is set to fully pass its climate bill, and with China potentially overachieving its targets, it's a much easier sell now. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does feel like Climate Change has been globally acknowledged after years of denial and real action has started to happen. Unfortunately it took devastating fires, floods, and droughts to move the needle. There is still a lot to do, but this past few months have provided some hope. I look forward to using all available credits to add solar to my house, purchase a EV, and replace my HVAC with a heat pump. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Commissar SFLUFAN Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 The Rhine's water level fell to a new low today: Rhine water levels fall to new low as Germany’s drought hits shipping | Germany | The Guardian WWW.THEGUARDIAN.COM Water levels fall to below 40cm on parts of key route for transporting fuel, wheat and other commodities Quote The levels of the Rhine River fell to a new low on Friday due to the ongoing drought in Germany and elsewhere in Europe, further restricting the distribution of coal, petrol, wheat and other commodities amid a looming energy crisis. The water level at Kaub near Frankfurt – a key waypoint where the fairway is shallower than elsewhere on the river – was forecast to fall below 40cm on Friday afternoon, the level at which it is no longer economical for many barges to transit the river. According to a daily bulletin by Germany’s Federal Waterways and Shipping Administration, water levels on the key waterway were at an unusually low level for this point in the year, and was estimated to drop by a further 10-15cm over the coming three or four days. While 14-day weather forecasts predict rising water levels from the middle of next week, the administration said this was unlikely to have a significant impact.

CitizenVectron Posted August 15, 2022 Share Posted August 15, 2022 Bloomberg - Are you a robot? WWW.BLOOMBERG.COM Quote They predict that in three decades, more than 100 million Americans will live in an "extreme heat belt" where at least one day a year, the heat index will exceed 125° Fahrenheit (52° Celsius) — the top level of the National Weather Service's heat index, or the extreme danger level. (The index combines temperature and humidity to arrive at how it feels when you go outside.) RIP gulf coast, with 40+ additional days per year above 100F.

Commissar SFLUFAN Posted August 15, 2022 Share Posted August 15, 2022 NBC News version: U.S. could see new 'extreme heat belt' by 2053 with millions hit by 125 degree heats WWW.NBCNEWS.COM A new report uses hyperlocal data and climate projections to show that cities as far north as Chicago could have many more days of extreme heat each year. Quote The most pronounced shift was found in Miami-Dade County, Porter said, where the area's seven hottest days, with heat index temperatures at 103 degrees, are projected to increase to 34 days at that temperature in 30 years.
